Have you ever stopped to ask yourself the question, “What is spray foam insulation?” Spray foam insulation is the next step in the evolution of residential insulation. The American Chemistry Council defines spray foam as a continuous insulation and air seal plastic material that is sprayed on walls, roofs, into gaps and corners, and on all contoured surfaces.

HOW IS SPRAY FOAM INSULATION MADE?

Two liquid components are mixed together and react on-site, where the insulation is to be installed.

The reaction takes place within seconds, expanding to create the foam

It seals gaps and forms a barrier wherever it is applied.

According to the American Chemistry Council, spray foam insulation is able to resist heat transfer extremely well, and it is a highly effective solution for dealing with air loss and infiltration through cracks, seams, and joints.
